Hanukkah is one of the quintessentially Zionist
holidays. It is a holiday of freedom,
celebrating the victory of the Maccabees over the Syrians. It reaffirms the
centrality of Israel and of Jerusalem in Jewish cultural life. Without love of Israel and Jewish national existence, Hanukkah has no real
meaning…

After hard fighting, the Maccabees liberated Jerusalem and entered the temple that was the center of Jewish
religious and national life, symbolising national
liberation. They removed the idol that had been set there for pagan worship,
cleansed the temple of pagan sacrifice and rededicated it…

According to tradition, when the Jews cleaned the
temple, they found only one small container of oil with which to light their
holy lamps. Miraculously, the container provided enough oil for eight days,
until new oil could be made and purified. Other sources tell of a torchlight
parade in the temple, which may also have contributed to the tradition of
lighting candles on Hanukkah…

(In current the anti-Israel and
perverted politically correct environment, Israeli politicians and our
spiritual leaders need to be reminded that Hanukah is a celebration of Zionism
- Spirit of Jewish National. The symbolism of the "Festival of
Lights", which our ‘lost’ rabbis so eagerly promoted, had only become
possible after the Jews defeated the enemy and removed them from the Jewish
land! That is what Israel must do now which will bring peace to
the Jewish people and make reunification of all our land possible! We have
tried to appease our enemies - it does not work!)

Palestine is a
Geographical Area - not a State!

On
July 24, 1922 the entire membership of the League of Nations (today’s UN) - 51
countries - unanimously declared: “Whereas recognition has been given to the
historical connection of the Jewish people with Palestine and to the grounds
for reconstituting their national home in that country.”

At the same time several mandates were allocated for
Arabs to satisfy their national aspirations: Iraq, Syria, Lebanon
and Saudi Arabia. Just because Arabs want to destroy Israel, with the help of
international anti-Semitic bigots, it does not mean that Jews must agree with
their agenda and allow the second Holocaust!

Food for Thoughtby Steven Shamrak

I have seen so
many extended interviews with advocates of the fake Palestinians rights, but
none with the true Zionists - advocates of the rights of Jewish people.
Self-hating and the politicly correct idiots, deliberately selected by media to
prove legitimacy of their anti-Israel/anti-Semitic agenda, are not representative
of the Jewish people!

A senior member of Fatah, JibrilRajoub, the faction headed
by PA Chairman Mahmoud Abbas, called for armed resistance against Israel. His remarks were
aired on PA official TV station on the same day that Abbas asked the United
Nations to upgrade the PA’s status to that of a non-member observer state. (Since the end of WWII traditional anti-Semites have been
assisting Arabs to complete the task they were hoping Nazis and their
collaborators started in Europe!)

Netanyahu is still Deliberately
Delusional

Prime Minister Binyamin
Netanyahu repeated that the UN resolution (approving Palestinian non-member status)
changes nothing in practice. “No Palestinian state will come into being without
recognising Israel as the state of
the Jewish people…” (Arabs will never recognise Israel,
especially when the Israeli government has no self-respect or vision for the
nation’s future!)

Was Yasser Arafat an Israeli Agent?

Director of PA Primary Heath
Care, As’ad Ramlawi, claimed that Palestinians who go to work in Israel are
subjected to “political blackmail” by Israeli authorities - something that
exposes them to AIDS. Some Palestinians have in the past claimed that Israeli
security forces recruit “collaborators” by first seducing them to have sexual
intercourse with prostitutes. In the past, Egyptian newspapers had also accused
Israel of spreading AIDS in the Arab world by dispatching prostitutes to these
countries. (Does it mean that Yasser Arafat,
who most likely died from AIDS, was an Israeli agent? Why can’t we use the same
ridiculous logic against our enemies?)

Israeli Sovereignty over Judea and Samaria Now!

The Women in Green movement
is calling upon the Israeli government to respond to the PA vote in the UN with
the immediate application of Israeli sovereignty over Judea and Samaria. "What's
important is not what the Nations say, but what the Jews do!" - David Ben Gurion.

March Deadline for Iran?

Robert Wood, the US delegate to the
UN nuclear agency, gave Iran until March to
start "cooperating in substance" with a UN nuclear agency
investigation into its nuclear program. If it failed to do so, he said, “The
United States... would urge the board to consider reporting this lack of
progress to the UN Security Council.” (How long will
this ‘consideration’ and the Security Council ‘deliberations’ take? Until it is too late for Israel!)

UN Mess a Result of Israel's 'Schizophrenic'
Policies

Bayit Yehudi (Jewish
Home) Chairman Naftali Bennett said, regarding the PA's bid in the UN, that the
problem is a direct result of the Israeli government's position favouring the
establishment of a PA state. "You can't support the establishment of a
Palestinian state on the one hand, and on the other - wonder when the world
takes action to establish it," he said. "This is schizophrenic
policymaking."

Jewish Woman in Iran Cut in Half

A Jewish woman in
Isfahan, Iran, was murdered and cut in half by Muslims who wanted to take over
her home. Relatives of the woman said she had lived next to a newly built
mosque, and worshipers had demanded that she and her family leave their home so
the mosque could be expanded. (This news is not reported by the anti-Semitic
media!)

Abbas Violated Agreements with Israel

The Israeli Prime
Minister's Office issued a statement that by going to the UN the PA has
"violated agreements with Israel, and Israel will act accordingly."
Israel has made clear in recent days that it would free Israel of its
obligations under the Oslo accord since Jerusalem views the move as a blatant
violation of the underlying principle of those agreements. (Is it
another empty threat? PA terrorists used Oslo accord only to advance their goal
of destruction of Israel. Israel must end the Oslo accord!)

US Build Strategic Base in Israel

The oddly named project, “Site
911”, will cost up to $100 million and can only be built by workers from
specific countries with proper security clearances. Palestinians need not
apply. When complete the well-guarded compound will have five levels buried
underground and six additional outbuildings on the above grounds, within the
perimeter. At about 127,000 square feet, the first three floors will house
classrooms, an auditorium... - all wedged behind shock resistant doors with
radiation protection and massive security. (It seems
that US government is expecting serious trouble in the nearest future from Arab
‘friends’ and Israel is the only ally it can trust in the Middle East!)

Hamas leader Mahmoud Zahar called on Fatah to join
his movement in the fight against Israel: “Our hands are extended
to Fatah to join the program of (armed) resistance and the liberation of
Palestine. Come and join the program of resistance and stop wasting your time
and effort. Let’s join hands and carry the rifle together.”

The Positive Step in the Right Direction

The Netanyahu
government has approved 3,000 new apartments for Jerusalem, Judea and Samaria.
It is the first response to the PA application for UN non-member status. More
projects are in the Israeli pipeline. (Will the government of Israel follow
it through or is it another empty declaration?)

Words are Cheap!

Two days after Berlin
disappointed Jerusalem by abstaining from UN vote on PA' status, German
chancellor says her country "will always stand on the side of
Israel". (The world leaders knew about the intention of the Natzis, but were silent before and during the Holocaust. They
pretended to be shocked later, but have immediately done everything possible to
accommodate the destruction of the Jewish state in 1947 and since! Please, view
the partition map)

Quote(s) of the Week:

“The interaction between the United Nations and the State of the Jews has
become the central axis of the UN's activity. Without Israel, the UN loses its
raison d'etre (over 50% of all UN resolutions are related and against
Israel)… The entire world
is obsessed with a tiny state that conducts itself more honourably,
democratically and morally than most of the other UN members - and contributes
to the world in a vast array of spheres, more than any other country.” - Moshe Feiglin

Like just about every
Zionist, I am in terrible pain because of the continued diplomatic and
strategic imbecility of the Israeli government. That doesn't mean that all
members are equally bad, only that as a group they continue doing stupid
things:

Since Oslo (1993) they
have chosen to empower our enemies.

The policy of retreat
and appeasements which never worked (for Jews with any nation in the history of
the world), became an Israel strategic policy…

Since 1982 (Lebanon) the
leftist establishment has used every dirty non-democratic trick to destroy
Zionism and the morale of true Israeli patriots.

Unfortunately the left
has emasculated the Zionists, dating back to the Altalena. And even before
that, when Jabotinsky was silenced in Europe, as he warned about the coming
Holocaust…

Change to Positive Jewish Diplomacy is Needed:

Expel all UN personnel
from Israel (all Jewish land).

Cut off all cash and
utilities to terrorists in the PA.

Cancel Oslo and reclaim
the Temple Mount.

Implement a true
blockade of Gaza - no entry or exit except to Egypt (controlled by Israel).

Annex all of Yesha
(Judea, Samaria and Gaza - and removing all enemy population from Jewish land -
Sinai is a logical destination!)

THE BOTTOM LINE

No more should Jews
debate the obvious, like to keep what is theirs or give it away. The Almighty
gave us Eretz Yisrael (the land of Israel) as a possession of the Jewish People
in perpetuity. No assembly of Israelis or nations in the world has the right to
go against G-d's word.
